The train leaves at 9:10am and arrives at Penn Station at 10:42am (transfer at Huntington).

We must be on the same train and remain in the same car as a group from Kings Park to Huntington and Huntington to Penn. After that, you’re on your own!

Come home that day on any Kings Park bound train that leaves Penn before midnight.
